Only users/roles with this capability will be able to use the H5P Caretaker unless it is configured to be public. Please note that while WordPress has a fully fledged role management features, you still require separate plugins to assing capabilities to user roles (e. g. [User Role Editor](https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-role-editor/)) Go to the settings _Settings > H5P Caretaker_ and * choose the URL where the tool should be made available, * choose whether the tool should be usable publicly or only by users with the respective capability (not public by default), * add introductory text that should be displayed on the page on top of the upload button, and * add footer text that should be displayed at the bottom of the page. ### Use The plugin will set up the URL _/h5p-caretaker_ or the URL that you configured in the settings. Go there, upload an H5P file and check the report for potential improvements of the content. The plugin will also add an “H5P Caretaker” menu item to the tools menu. You will also find an “H5P Caretaker” button above the H5P content view inside the editor. Click on that to open the H5P Caretaker page and the respective file will be checked directly. ### Privacy Please note that the uploaded H5P file will be removed immediately after analyzing it. It will not be stored permanently or used for anything else. Please also note that the plugin will fetch the [H5P accessibility reports](https://studio.libretexts.org/help/h5p-accessibility-guide) and displaythose inside the report if appropriate. No personal information is shared in that process. ## Screenshots [⌊You will receive an extensive report for your H5P contents.⌉⌊You will receive an extensive report for your H5P contents.⌉[ You will receive an extensive report for your H5P contents.
